FOREWORD The Water Act 1989 brings about a dramatic restructuring of the water industry in England and Wales through an overall separation of the responsibilities for utility and regulatory functions in relation to water. This division of the industry will allow a greater degree of specialism to be developed, and ultimately will prove more effective both in satisfying the needs of water consumers and also in safeguarding in general aquatic environment.
